isiXhosa edition translated by PROF
PETER MTUZE, with input from PROF SIMPHIWE SESANTI and DR ATHAMBILE
MASOLA
After years in the making, the iconic I Write What I Like has been
translated into isiXhosa, a long-awaited project for the Biko family
and the Biko Foundation.
Ndibhala Intando Yam features the writing of the famous activist and
Black Consciousness leader, Steve Biko. Before his untimely death in
detention at age 30, Biko was instrumental in uniting Black Africans in
the struggle against the apartheid government in South Africa.
This edition features a new Foreword by Nkosinathi Biko as well as the
material of the original 2004 Picador Africa edition: a collection of
Biko’s columns entitled I Write What I Like published in the journal of
the South Africa Student Organisation under the pseudonym of ‘Frank
Talk’; other journal articles, interviews and letters written by Steve
Biko at the time; a Preface by Archbishop Desmond Tutu and an
Introduction by Nkosinathi Biko; and a moving memoir by Father Aelred
Stubbs, which pays tribute to the courage and power of this young
leader who was to become one of Africa’s heroes.
